Consumed by You (Fighting Fire #3) by Lauren Blakely

A sexy romance from Entangled's Brazen imprint...

She’s playing with fire…

Dog trainer Cara Bailey wants to find “the one,” but fantasizing about her sexy-as-hell client, firefighter Travis Jansen, is getting in the way. Her only option? Get the confirmed bachelor out of her system-in every position possible-so she can settle down with Mr. Right. Starting right now.

Travis doesn’t do relationships, so no matter how badly he wants the pretty little brunette, he keeps his distance. Until Cara goes and changes the game. She’ll fulfill all of his fantasies if he agrees to walk away when it’s over. But when the wildfire between them blazes out of control, it will consume everything-and everyone-in its path….

CONSUMED BY YOU is a full-length, standalone romance novel that follows Travis and Cara’s scorching story.

4 out of 5 stars

This was such an awesome story. An entertaining read with a ton of super sexy mixed in!

Cara and Travis were great characters. I liked them in the beginning, but by the end I loved them. I enjoyed their growing connection and chemistry. I liked learning their history and watching them come together. They had a playfulness and flirtatiousness to them that really exploded into a lot of hotness.

Consumed by You was a light, fun read with just a bit of drama and a whole lot of steamy. There was a really good introduction laying it all out and a nice emotional build throughout. The middle was really good but it felt slightly repetitive. I enjoyed the overall story but it was a little to smooth for me. I thought it had the best ending! Loved it and the super sweet epilogue.

Loved the character connections! Especially the one that Travis was working with. That made my day. I always enjoy those references and how everything gets tied together. I loved the addition of the dogs and some of the antics they brought about. One part had me laughing out loud.

Another awesome read from Lauren Blakely with likable characters, a solid story, and serious sexy times!
